Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
Someone mentioned tail light covers... I cannot believe that people actually install those on their vehicles. "Hmm, what little piece of plastic can I add to my truck to make it considerably less safe and make me look like a moron at the same time? I know I'll put little cutouts of a naked lady over my tail lights!".. Puleez...

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
I don`t know if it`s true.But,I heard a good way to create downforce on the rear wheels of a truck would be to haul a load in the bed.Has anyone else heard this theory?

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
omg what have i started ..LOL. This thread has gotten popular!
That geo is rediculous! LMAO ...the wing probably cost more then the car! @Special-K ... adding a load in the bed aids in traction. I guess its the same thing as downforce but without the wind?LOL

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
What a waste!
That would be awesome to do to my 72, since it has coil springs in back. It would really steady it up on turns. rofl.

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
Around the crowd I hang with, that would be known as a "something-from-every-row-of-Canadian Tire" truck.
And the first comment that comes to my mind...that truck needs a healthy dose of "Lund-Away" |

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
Anybody think the downforce would be more evenly applied if it was on the roof?

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
How about one on the roof to direct the wind to it? Better yet how about chopping the top to reduce drag? All he needs is a great big visor over the windshield to finnish off the look.

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
You guys are pretty harsh, just because is looks totally dorky and makes no sense at all, doesn't mean it shouldn't be done. And you gotta give it to him....that is unique! It looks like it might even have a third brake light in it, SWEET! What defines the difference of a modification between "unique" vs "custom"???

 I'm laughing so hard because two days ago I saw a mexican driving a white mid 90's chevy with a wing on the roof. He works at the mexican resteraunt in the town i work in. What a coincidence. By the way his truck and the truck this thread is about look STOOPID!!! And how does the guy in the GEO expect to see when he backs up??

Re: Why do this to your truck ...LOL
In the USA the fastest you can drive is 75. That makes the wing worthless.
Maybe the driver is planning on taking vacation in Germany where there is no speed limit on the freeway (Autobahn). I wouldn´t dream of putting something like that on mine. But if you look at the picture closely, his back tires are on the ground so it must be working.
